MORE INNOCENTS" ABROAD.
Our innocents are still going abroad. Some thousands of them visited Stratford- on-Avon this year, and, according to the London Times, some of them lived up to the models set for them by our revered Mark Twain. The report of them, given, doubtless in the interests of inter- nationalamity includes one or two that Mark would have delighted in. The Times correspondent came upon one of them standing in the middle of the street in the middle of the town and look ing earnestly all around him. He soon begah to unburden himself and I, as the Dearest stranger, was the recipient of his confessions.

And when your Shakespeare lived here, he went on, there was no Memorial Theatre, no Shakespearo's bust and tomb, and no Shakespeare Museum. Nor did anybody trouble to look at Anne Hatha- way's cottage. Neither, he might have added, had they the chance of seeing the movies in any memorial theatre to Chan- cer."

LONDON "NIGHTLY CURFEW: BELL WHICH HAS BEEN RUNG FOR 300 YEARS.
At 9 o'clock each night the curfew is rung in London.
To many a Cockney, this will come na surprisa, writes & Daily Chronicle re- presentative, but the fact that it has been rung nightly for the past 300 years 'will' probably be a greater one.
This old-time custom is still a part of the duty of the chief porter of Lincoln's. Iun, and the official bolding that office has, with the exception of a period dur ing the war, carried out his duty of sounding the curfew for over 20 years.
The bell which is tolled was originally brought from Calais by the ill-fated Robert Dovereux, Earl of Essex, in 1506. It is hung in the old Lincoln's Inn Chapel, erected during the reign of James I, în the building of which Ben Jonson Fis said to have used his trowel,
"At 8-45 each night. I light my lantern and proceed to the belfry," said the chief porter-who in his modesty wishes to re main anonymous. "As soon as the last stroke of 9 has sounded I strike the bell 80 times
"Why so Well, I don't know, except- that it is the custom. Lincoln's Inn, you know, had a bad reputation in the days "of the
Mumpers and Rulers, and perhaps, if a man was no sober, any- thing less than 60 strokes would be un- convincing..
